The race, in three figures
The race, in words
Noel Marshall finished 467th of 1,312 men in the Open division at Madrid 2025, in 1:20:31, faster than 64% of the field.
Legs and stations told different stories: 76% of the field beaten on the runs, 47% on the stations. The burpee broad jumps were where this race was made, 1:24 ahead of the median. A harder second half: 3:37 more lost to the middle of the field after halfway than before it.
Athletes who raced both Madrid 2025 and Dublin 2025 were 1:06 slower here, so the course was tougher than the clock suggests.
